To Text or Not Text?

You used to could schedule a day before and not have to text again until the morning and ask if everything was still good. She would text you back most time yes see you at (time) and send you the address. You would arrive at the time and text to let her know and she would send you the apartment number and you would head up. If either party is running more than 5 minutes late they should let the other know.
Those days seem to be gone, but yes I would wait or adjust schedule if notified a least a few minutes before. I do not want to be left sitting in a parking lot for 25 minutes.
If you use a hobby phone you can't text when you are driving, so if they are gong to be late, then I prefer a brief call to let me know. There is no way I am hooking my hobby phone up to a new car since that info can be in the cars computer.

I text when I get there. Usually five minutes early. Don’t wait more than ten minutes past appointment time. Five past if the provider doesn’t respond.
I personally have had providers run behind and it isn't the end of the world, especially if it is 10 minutes but here is what I will say, if it is too late, like a ridiculous level and you keep saying "Just 5 minutes" and extend over and over to trickle it, that would be the last time because it ruins the experience but 10 minutes is not an issue.

For me, I text an eta, then usually text saying 10 minutes away to give them that heads up. then I text usually when I am a minute away saying I am there since that will pad in the delay so once I pull in, I usually get a reply. If I don't get a reply quickly there, I will wait but usually I am looking up other providers and if they reply before you do, I am gone. But if I get a reply, I am good. Especially if it is a first visit, I am just worried about ghosting at that point. If we have rapport, completely different.

Adding in that sometimes the use of texting apps might be delayed in send/receive. My ATF and I found out the hard way when I sent her a photo and she didn't reply, then wondered if I even sent it, so I sent her screenshots and she didn't receive those either. I hit her up on her personal and boom, they were all there.

For me, I keep it short and sweet.

*thursday*
Me: Are you available Friday 10/3 @ 4pm? I'll be around XXXX
Her: Yes, would love to see you, I'll book a dayuse at XXXXX in XXXXX
Me: Great! I'll text you in the AM.
*friday*
Me: Good morning hotness, still on for 4pm at XXXX?
Her: Yes! Cannot wait
Me: Good! I'll text you an ETA when I'm on the road
Her: Okay - I'll be wearing your favorite garters and stockings
Me: Babe, My ETA says 3:50, I'll text when I park.
Her: Ok great I'm here
Me: Just parked
Her: OK great, room number is 123, first floor, past the desk, next to the ice machine across from the stairs.
*sesh*
Her: You are magical, thanks for taking the time.

Don't like sitting in a parking lot. I would rather circle the block than park for more than 10 minutes. I don't mind the "need more time." Just don't get upset if I'm circling the block when you become available.

Sweet baby tebow there are some butthurt sensitive fucktards replying. Its a wonder any of them ever get laid.
This is interesting because some of the providers I have met always say that it makes them feel like I am actually showing up vs flaking on them. First time I have heard the opposite. Especially if it is the first visit.
